Learn Chinese step by step, from pinyin and tones to HSK 9 (HSK 3.0): characters, words and grammar points arranged along the nine HSK levels.
Every character comes with pinyin, radicals, stroke order and a memory story, and spaced-repetition review brings each word back when it is due.
Practice with dictation lessons from real videos and with conversations, scan Chinese text with your camera, and review from Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets.
Hanzijo is free to start: you can begin one new lesson every day.
A CLEAR HSK PATH
• Nine levels that follow the HSK 3.0 framework, from your first characters to HSK 9.
• A Foundation course before HSK 1 teaches pinyin, the four tones, tone changes and the basic strokes.
• Each lesson teaches its new characters and words, adds grammar points in most lessons, and ends with a short quiz.
CHARACTERS THAT STICK
• Every character comes with pinyin, tone, stroke count, radicals, meaning and a memory story.
• Watch the stroke order, trace it, or write the character from memory and let the app check it.
• Switch between Simplified and Traditional characters in Settings at any time.
GRAMMAR AND WORDS IN CONTEXT
• Grammar points at every level, each with a clear pattern, example sentences with pinyin and translation, and common mistakes to avoid.
• Tap a word in a grammar example to see its meaning.
• Every word comes with example sentences and audio.
LISTEN AND SPEAK
• Dictation lessons built from real Chinese videos: listen to a line, then put its phrases back in order.
• Conversations at every level: follow each line as it is read aloud, then say it yourself to practice your pronunciation.
• Paste the link of a YouTube video with Chinese subtitles and study the words and grammar of each line.
REVIEW EVERY DAY
• Spaced-repetition review schedules every character, word and grammar point you learn.
• Once it has enough of your review history, the app's AI model lists the items you are most likely to forget, so you can review them in time.
• Home Screen, Lock Screen and quiz widgets keep a word in front of you all day.
• In Search, write a character, a word or a whole sentence by hand, or scan a sign, a menu or a page to see the words, characters and grammar points it contains.
• Stats show your streak, an activity calendar and your progress along the HSK path.
